Hello i would like to know which of the above graphic cards(rx 470 4gb and gtx 1060 3gb)are best
when paired with intel i3 6100.

i am trying to build my pc for 450$ to 500$ and please suggest MOBO for them


thanks for suggestions.
 
Don't get an i3 6100. You can get a CPU with roughly the same power for half the price.
Also the RX 470 would be the better option.

terrible psu and that hard drive is really not made for desktop use


that cpu is really good for the price and a good partner with a rx 470

 
7200RPM hard drive added. You don't need 750W for a PSU but it was cheaper than the normal EVGA 550W so why not.

I wouldn't spend money on a third party cooler for a budget system. Also, for a system like that I think a 430W-500W power supply is enough. Just make sure it has the 6 or 6+2 pin connector that you need for the particular videocard you pick, and that it's not an offbrand PSU. I'd prefer the 470 4gb over the 1060 3gb. I'd start with one 8gb stick of system ram. You can always add another stick later if needed.

>.> again you choose a poor power supply


also dont need a cpu cooler, no overclocking so the stock one is fine
